> Is he actively trying to implode the US economy, and kill the reserve currency status of the dollar? I ask because it sure seems like it to me.

Yes. If you read the regime's crackpot "economist's" book it lays out a bizzarro upside down framework whereby having a strong currency is a liability and needing manufactured goods is a strength, with the cure being to destroy our currency such that we too can be an impoverished work camp.

In reality of course the actual problem was never a strong currency by itself, but rather that the political establishment didn't spend the gains from a strong currency on mitigating the damage to our industrial base (under the banner of fake "fiscal responsibility"), but rather just gave that wealth away as artificially low interest loans to make the all important Line go up.
